>If you only trust what's popular, you'll miss breakthroughs
Missing breakthroughs is literally not a fucking issue unless you're a research scientist. Ultimately trusting what is popular is safer and wiser. For every actual fucking breakthrough that improves society, there's a thousand discoveries that at best amount to nothing and at worst fucking kill the first people to get involved in that shit before it's banned or the kinks get worked out. Every bottle of snake oil and tinfoil theory was some dipshit's "breakthrough" in the first place.

And if you ARE a research scientist, you should be capable of fucking checking claims found in breakthroughs and building consensus for them. Remember, ultimately being right doesn't fucking matter if you can't convince others you're right. The people that make cutting edge discoveries can't change jack shit on their own.

Remember Copernicus and Mendel both ended up basically fucking ignored until other people checked and propagated their shit.

tl;dr Shut the fuck up and stay in your fucking lane. Leave science to the scientists and trust the science.
